Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Black Dragon, I am the Lord of the Gods

Chapter 348 Enough to Kill a God
……

"Come again!"

Xuanming let out a low shout, but instead of backing down, he took the initiative to meet the attack!
He kept his promise and did not use the Blood Spear or the Killing Domain. Today was just training, not a fight.

The vast ocean is boundless!

This greatly enhances one's absolute control over the water element, easily unleashing massive tsunamis, creating deep-sea whirlpools, and even temporarily altering the rules of a localized sea area. In the ocean, this skill's effects are amplified, granting near-dominance over the entire area.

With a thought, the calm sea below suddenly boiled! Several enormous waterspouts roared into the sky, swarming towards Poseidon from all directions! At the same time, the gravity within the area instantly increased, and the seawater became viscous and heavy, attempting to restrict Poseidon's movements!

Poseidon's expression remained unchanged, and he gently tapped his scepter.

"Certainly."

Words become law! The roaring waterspout and distorted gravity field seemed to be forcibly smoothed out by an invisible force, instantly restoring calm!

The might of the sea god!

She struck her scepter again, and countless blue spears, formed from the purest seawater at a high degree of compression, appeared out of thin air, shooting towards Xuanming like a storm! Each spear contained a terrifying power that could pierce through everything!
Demon Whale Shattering Star Fist!
By concentrating vast soul power and the power of the deep sea into his fist, a single punch seems to draw upon the power of the entire ocean, possessing terrifying power that ignores defense and shatters everything. Its impact can even penetrate space and strike directly at the soul. Its power is immense, but the consumption of soul power is also terrifyingly high.

As Xuanming unleashed his punch, Poseidon, who had been standing still since the start of the battle, had no choice but to defend with all her might. Even so, she was blasted hundreds of meters away, causing the surging waves to crash and forcing the onlookers to keep their distance once again.

boom! boom! boom! boom--! ! !
Huge splashes of water kept erupting on the sea surface, and the roar was deafening!
Poseidon's attack was like the raging waves of the sea, endless and boundless!
She seemed to be using her full strength, yet she firmly suppressed Xuanming, forcing him to fight back with all his might with every attack!
Xuanming is like a giant whale struggling in a stormy sea, constantly using the abyss to devour and weaken the opponent's attack energy to replenish himself. At the same time, he uses the boundless ocean to constantly change the battlefield environment, stirring up giant waves, creating whirlpools, and manipulating water pressure to interfere and counterattack!

Occasionally, when an opportunity arises, he will unleash a Demon Whale Shattering Star Fist from a distance, the crushing power of which forces Poseidon to take it seriously and block it!
The battle between the two lacked the ferocity and madness of their fight with Bibi Dong, but it was all the more dangerous and exquisite! This was an ultimate contest of control over the power of the ocean!
The Seven Sacred Pillar Douluos watching from afar had stiff expressions and cold sweat beaded on their foreheads.

Hailong Douluo's voice was hoarse: "The High Priest's power... is even more unfathomable than before! We couldn't withstand any one of these attacks..."

Seahorse Douluo stared intently at Xuanming, who was stubbornly holding on despite Poseidon's relentless bombardment and even managing to occasionally counterattack. His eyes widened in horror: "That kid... is he even human?! He managed to withstand so many attacks from the High Priest and still hold on?!"

They felt their understanding of power being constantly redefined! Xuanming's resilience and mastery of that strange domain were like... another deep-sea demon whale king! Even more terrifying! Because he was still learning and adapting!

On the other side, Xue Di and Bing Di also looked surprised.

Hyotei couldn't help but exclaim, "His control over the sea... has improved so quickly! He seemed a bit clumsy yesterday, but today he's already able to hold his own against the High Priest!"

A knowing glint flashed in Xue Di's clear, cold eyes: "He has always been extremely skilled at manipulating ice and water, as they are essentially the same. Back in the far north, his control over ice and snow had already reached its peak. Now he is simply adapting that control to the flowing sea."

Zi Ji crossed her arms, her dragon eyes gleaming with a strange light, and said, "That's right. When he was cultivating with him at the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest, he was already able to precisely control every movement of the lake water. Although still lake water and flowing sea water are different, the underlying control logic is the same. What he lacks is just time and experience to adapt."

And now, the actual battle with Poseidon, the ruler of the sea, is the best whetstone!
Time passed little by little, from dawn to noon, and then to the setting sun.

The battle remained intense, but it was not as brutal as yesterday, with flesh and blood flying everywhere.

Poseidon's attacks remained powerful and vast, seemingly without end.

But Xuanming's resilience exceeded everyone's expectations! The Abyss Devouring Domain was simply a bottomless pit, constantly absorbing the energy dissipated from Poseidon's attacks and drawing power from the sea to replenish his consumption!
This allowed him to withstand Poseidon's relentless attacks throughout the entire day!
The look of surprise in Poseidon's sea-blue eyes grew stronger.

She could sense that Xuanming was rapidly learning and imitating her attack methods and his use of ocean power! His responses were becoming more and more composed, and the transitions between his skills were becoming smoother and smoother!

As the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sea a golden red, Poseidon slowly ceased his attack.

She sensed that more than half of her soul power had been depleted, and then looked at Xuan Ming opposite her. Although his aura was somewhat disordered and he had some minor scratches on his body, his eyes were still bright and his fighting spirit had not diminished. A ripple of emotion welled up in her heart.

She actually... failed to exhaust Xuanming's power after a full day of attacks? Instead, her own soul power was consumed even more?
The Abyss Devourer's ability to recover during prolonged battles is simply insane!

"Thank you." Xuanming slowly withdrew his domain.

Poseidon looked at him, a complex smile appearing on her dignified face, and gently shook her head: "It is your own amazing comprehension. Given time, I'm afraid no one on this sea will be your match."

Her words came from the heart. Xuanming's rapid growth and adaptability to power were astonishing even to her. "However, why is your defense so strange?" Poseidon couldn't help but ask.

Xuanming chose to withstand her attacks most of the time today. When she combined the power of the sea to attack, even Tang Chen back then did not dare to fight her head-on.

But Xuanming actually withstood it with his body alone!
She felt as if she were battling the Deep Sea Demon Whale King!
“Soul Bone Ability.” Xuanming stood on the sea surface, his surging blood and qi gradually stabilizing.

The torso bone of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, combined with the dragon bone energy of two Dragon Kings, forms the torso bone of the Abyss Dragon Emperor. Its passive skill, Abyss Dragon Emperor Body, possesses ultimate defense below the god level. At the same time, the body can simultaneously and perfectly control three attributes: ultimate water (abyss attribute), ultimate ice, and ultimate fire. The total amount of soul power and the recovery speed undergo a qualitative change.

Unless it's a special soul skill like Bibi Dong's Eternal Creation that ignores defense, or a terrifying power like Poseidon's that directly mobilizes the power of the ocean to smash into him, the attacks of ordinary Title Douluos are no different from tickling him.

In terms of defensive capabilities, he is now about the same as Di Tian.

“Soul bone…” Poseidon’s eyes changed slightly.

"Since it's a million-year-old skeleton, it should have other skills. Don't you want to give it a try?"

"Give it a try?" Xuanming frowned slightly and shook his head.

“It’s a bit dangerous.”

Poseidon paused slightly, "Don't worry, this is still within the territory of Poseidon Island. I can borrow the power of the Temple of Poseidon, even if..."

“What I mean is, even if you borrow the power of the Sea God, you still can’t stop it,” Xuanming said.

Xuanming's words caused a flicker of surprise in Poseidon's blue eyes, but it was quickly replaced by an even stronger curiosity.

As the High Priestess of the Sea God, she has ruled Sea God Island for nearly a century. With the help of the Sea God Temple, she is confident that she can handle any challenge in this sea area, and even the Deep Sea Demon Whale King would not dare to offend her.

But the absolute confidence revealed in Xuanming's calm tone forced her to be cautious.

"Even the power of the Sea God couldn't stop it?" Poseidon frowned slightly, her tone tinged with inquiry. "Are you sure?"

“It’s not just that you can’t stop it, it’s that… you will die,” Xuanming said seriously.

Poseidon remained silent for a moment. She trusted Xuanming's judgment; although his fighting style was brutal, he never boasted. Her curiosity grew even stronger—what skill could make Xuanming believe it was enough to kill her outright?

She was already a demigod, and if she were to use the divine power in the Temple of the Sea God, she would be no different from a true god on this sea.

Xuanming actually believed that his attack was enough to kill her, which meant that his attack... was enough to kill a god!
“In that case,” Poseidon pondered, “I won’t take it head-on. But… could you let me see it? Just use it on an uninhabited area of ​​the sea.”

She was really eager to see what this skill, which Xuanming described as "powerful enough to kill gods," actually looked like.

The Snow Empress, Ice Empress, Purple Princess, and others nearby also pricked up their ears, equally curious about Xuanming's newly acquired ability. Hearing the words "enough to kill a god" especially shook them to their core.

Xuanming looked at the undisguised desire for exploration in Poseidon's eyes, then glanced at the equally expectant crowd around him, pondered for a moment, and nodded: "Okay. But we need to find a place that is far enough away and deep enough."

He turned to the enormous Demon Soul Great White Shark King in the sea: "Little White, lead the way, find a deep-sea area far away from Seagod Island and any other islands, where the water is more than 10,000 meters deep."

Little White nodded its enormous head, let out a deep whale call, and turned to swim towards the open sea.

The group followed closely behind, flying for about half an hour until they were surrounded by a vast ocean, with no islands in sight. The seawater below had become increasingly deep in color, turning into an almost inky blue.

“This is it.” Xiaobai stopped, its huge body hovering on the sea surface, its golden eyes looking at Xuanming. “This sea area is more than 15,000 meters deep, and there is a trench below. There are no signs of life.”

Xuanming hovered in the air, sensed the deep, cold sea below that contained immense water pressure, and nodded: "Okay."

He took a deep breath, and his aura began to undergo a dramatic transformation.

The previously restrained soul power began to awaken and boil like a volcano! The dark red killing aura and the deep blue-black ocean power did not appear. Instead, what appeared was a more primal, more domineering, and seemingly supreme power... the might of the Dragon Emperor!
His body emitted a faint, white glow, especially his torso, which was now radiating a heart-palpitating energy fluctuation—the torso of the Abyss Dragon Emperor, which was a fusion of the million-year-old torso of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and the original dragon bone of the Ice and Fire Dragon King!
Xuanming slowly brought his hands together in front of his chest. All his soul power, spiritual power, and even his vast physical strength began to compress and condense between his hands at an extremely terrifying speed!
Om-! ! !
Centered on him, the space within a kilometer radius began to distort and tremble! The sea below silently caved in, forming a huge whirlpool, as if it could not withstand the terrifying power that was about to erupt!
Poseidon, the Seven Sacred Pillars Douluo, Snow Empress, Ice Empress... the expressions of all the spectators changed drastically!
They could clearly sense that the energy gathering between Xuanming's hands had reached a terrifying level that made their very souls tremble! It was a pure, extreme power, born solely for destruction!
